More or less. I am comparing the two versions in BLFS svn and 7.4 (It is
very good to having releases, so to easily comparing instructions
versions. In "Command Explanations", of svn (7.5-rc1) I think we should
write the complete switch, or it is almost useless:

s|=...|=$(/usr/bin/apxs -q libexecdir)|

In configure, I don't know how to handle the switch alone
"--with-apache-libexecdir"

menu-cache and openbox are my faults. I can fix them.

The difference between my opinions and nothing are as small as the
majority here wants. But I did not pay attention to this libexec drop
subject at the beginning and it bothered a lot, during tags. So, I would
like to propose that these kind of things should never be left for the
tfreeze/tag stage, but be done before or after, in the future. Just
tagging is hard enough a work.
